IT DOES MATTER... TO YOU


And the Mother City goes pink in full support to our Cancer Awareness Campaign. The hall was filled with 2,300 women, mostly dressing in pink, showing support to this important event. Mrs. Dorothy Du Plooy, head of the Cancer Association for the Western Province, enlighted the participants on the subject focusing on prevention. Knowledge is power and once you are exposed to something new and you absorb that information, you are empowered to be a voice in your community, in your work place, in your family hood. Our aim is to lead women to love themselves, to love their bodies and to take care of their health. If changes in your lifestyle are a must then accept the challenge of improving in this area of your life. Our body is the temple of the Holy Spirit so why not to offer Him the best dwelling place? Remember that any improvement to your life, will reflect directly in your family so, not only they deserve the best of you but you need to be ready to give the best to yourself.

People from the Cape, I trust you have enjoyed every minute of this event.

Running for a Cause


Every year, Spar Supermarkets promote a 10km women marathon and a 5km walk in full support of the Cancer Association of South Africa, during the month of October.

UCKG was well represented in this by Argentina and 4 of her trainees who joined the event under UCKG Sports Club banner but the great surprise is Pinky Dada, wife to Pr. Alex Dada, from Rabie Ridge, who represented Women in Action.

They run this morning for a cause - in full support of Awareness and Cancer Research.

Thank you Pinky because you accepted the challenge! Know that all women at UCKG are proud of you!

Pinky has completed the 10km run in 1hour and 2 minutes.

Congratulations Women in Action!


Congratulations to all the pastors' wives who have today completed their HIV/Aids STI's Course and will write their exams soon graduating as part of the first group of Peer Educators from the UCKG in this matter. It was tough but you made it! Now we are all better equipped to take care of our people and of those out there in great need of knowledge and comfort in regards to HIV/Aids.
